Kardashian and Paris, whose friendship spans decades, were seen indulging in what seemed like childlike fun at the holiday party. Riding together on an inflatable flying carpet snow sled, the duo appeared to be having a great time, capturing the attention of onlookers and social media alike, as per The U.S. Sun reports. The annual Kardashian-Jenner Christmas Eve party featured the duo hitting (fake!) snowy slopes in Kardashian’s backyard, clad in couture gowns that screamed opulence, People reports. Paris, donning a tiara and a green, long-sleeve sequin gown, continued the sledding tradition she started in 2018. On the other hand, Kardashian opted for a light-blue floor-length vintage Mulger dress with fur accents and silk details, completing the look with an abundance of diamonds.
Nicky Hilton, Paris’s sister, captured the moments of laughter as the pair sat tandem on the sled. In addition to sharing behind-the-scenes glimpses of the party, she highlighted her own pink sequin mini dress and a photo of her kissing her husband, James Rothschild. Paris, celebrating her joy, recently welcomed her daughter, London Marilyn, in November. With a new addition to the family and a big brother, Phoenix, at 11 months old, this marked their first Christmas as a family of four. She expressed her excitement, saying, “We can’t wait to start our own family traditions, celebrate the holidays, and ring in the new year.”

Nicky, revealing her love for holiday parties and festive attire, emphasized, “The holiday season is my favorite time to dress up because I love party dresses. I love the jewel tones, the velvets, the crystals.” She added that she has “lots of” boots and tights in rotation during this time of year, making it a truly glamorous celebration. Looking forward to a “California Christmas” with her family, Nicky shared that her kids are “so excited” to head to Paris’s house for the holiday. With daughters Lily-Grace Victoria, 7, and Theodora “Teddy” Marilyn, 5, and a 17-month-old son whose name is yet to be revealed, the Rothschild family is eager to reunite with their aunt and cousins for a festive celebration.
“It’s going to be really nice,” Nicky exclaimed, as she revealed her children’s love for Paris’ house, describing it as a lavish toy store with a pink Bentley, bookshelves filled with dolls, and an array of toys that make it seem like the most glamorous Barbie doll’s haven. The criticism surrounding Kardashian’s supposed insincerity during her interaction with Paris remains a hot topic, overshadowing the glitz and glamour of the Christmas bash.
